[U.S. Ambassador to the EU Warns: Restricting Starlink Will Trigger 'Devastating' Retaliation Against European Businesses] BlockBeats News, October 19 – U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Andrew Puzder warned that if the EU proceeds with plans to restrict access for U.S. competitors like SpaceX to certain European markets, European businesses will face 'devastating' retaliation from Washington. Previously, the European Commission proposed reserving part of the spectrum resources used for direct satellite connections to smartphones for European domestic companies. This move would limit the frequencies available to SpaceX (the operator of the Starlink network) and some Chinese companies. Puzder stated that given the massive scale of the U.S. market, European businesses 'should be wary of such a scenario, as it would be devastating for them. You cannot make European companies more competitive by undermining the competitiveness of American companies.' [Original Link]
